Russia’s Lipetsk region hit by ‘massive’ drone attack: Governor

Russia was evacuating people on Friday from parts of its western region of Lipetsk, after a “massive attack” by Ukrainian drones caused explosions, disrupted power supply, and wounded six people, regional governor Igor Artamonov said.

Four villages were being evacuated after a state of emergency was declared in the Lipetsk municipal district, Artamonov said on the Telegram messaging app, some of them situated near an air force base.[REUTERS]
